How about you form your own opinion about something instead of relying on other people? I, on the other hand, fucking love the gameplay and find it immensely fun. So much fun, in fact, that I've put many hours into the online multiplayer and have beaten the single player three separate times.
Does anyone remember when people tried games for themselves instead of relying on internet strangers?
So you buy every game you have the slightest interest in without informing yourself? You mind loaning me some of your disposable income so I can pick up a PS3 and a copy of the game so I no longer have to borrow a friends?
And just for the record, I do form my own opinion but considering I don't have the luxury time to game like I would like to I try to do as much research as possible as to not waste precious time. Because reviews are skewed for these tropes of games I go to people I know personally over reader reviews on forums because I know what they like I'm relation to my own taste. If someone with similar taste doesn't recommend a game then I won't give it priority. If I'm highly interested I'll still give it a shot but much much later on.
Take Assassins Creed as a recent example.Kept hearing everywhere how fun this series is and how I'm crazy for not having played a single entry yet. Even close friends recommended it. Bought it for Wii U in November and only recently started playing it. Can't stand these cut scenes every two seconds. Not my cup of tea, and while I understand that they help emphasize a game story, to me personally it breaks the game playing experience. I, as the gamer, feel as if I have no control over the game when it constantly stops me to watch a scene. Sure I can skip it and I'm grateful for the option, but then I'd miss something relevant to my next step or be confused about it, so it feels like I'm forced to watch it.
I just want to play games, man.
